Traffic camera ticket

Just got this in the mail. Yea I remember doing it, I missed the turn and went right from the non turn lane. But it says I ran a red light. Does the word amber on the top mean thats the color the light was at the time?
I just paid a $195 speeding ticket, is there any way out of this?

Id say that your only chance is to go to court and talk to the DA/Judge.

You stopped, conditions were safe and you turned. . .

It says for not stopping but I remember I was supposed to turn after I passed the turning lane.

It does say my speed is 13 mph the whole time.
What I don't understand it what 'amber' means, I guess the light is yellow, not amber. I honestly don't remember what color the light was when I went through it, clearly I didn't put anyone in danger but I guess the law is the law.

Now that I look at it, it says phase: R
I guess that means the light was red.

you can't go to their web page and watch the video? I got one down here in CC and didn't remember doing it. I went and watched myself blow through a "pink" light on the web.

its probably because of the way that it takes the pics and you werent in the turn lane when you turned so it activated. Id say pay it because even still you made an illegal turn. I was wondering why it looked like you turned but werent in the turn lane
